The UL4 is a big brother of the Big Agnes Fly Creek UL2, about which we did a full hands-on review, and the biggest of the four tents in the series. The UL2 got our Top Pick award because it is one of the lightest tents you can get. How is the UL4 different than the UL2?

The UL4

Has about 75 percent more floor area

Is $130 more expensive

Is about two pounds heavier

Both tents have otherwise very similar designs and construction.

Both get similar reviews. Which one should you get? If you are getting a light tent you should get the absolute lightest one that fits your needs. For most people, that will be the UL2. But if you want more space or are in a group of 4, the UL4 is the way to go.
